CEO Jensen Huang said that U.S. President Donald Trump "asked me to come" to the China summit in Beijing, when asked by reporters about his trip.
Huang was a later addition to the high-stakes trip on Tuesday, after his name was noticably absent from a list of executives making the trip, shared by a White House official on Monday.
"This is an incredible opportunity for me to represent the United States of course, and to come support President Trump in one of the most important summits in human history," Huang told reporters on the sidelines of the event on Thursday.
"The two presidents, President Xi and President Trump have such a wonderful relationship, this is an incredible opportunity for us to rely on the relationships to build a much, much better partnership," he added.
